1861 Census Sydenham

[dorothy]

I am looking for Henry Barnes Born Sydenham Kent.

Was living at the stables Hill House, Camberwell on the 1871 census

Henry Barnes age 31 Gardener Born Sydenham Kent

He was living with his wife Mary Ann Barnes aged 30, and children under the age of 7, so he was possibly not married on the 1861 census and still living in Sydenham


Thanks

HI,

Sydenham isn't in the 1861 Kent census. I wonder if it is in London?
